SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The acting for the leads Blair Underwood and Sharon Leal was pretty good although at times he was not so great as I would think there would be more sympathy for his wife. The police officer from her home town was believable. But the rest of the actors were really not very good, often over the top. The female detective was just too much.And I thought it would have more of a Christian theme but frankly I don't see how that contributed very much at all to the plot. Unfortunately it seemed to just be tacked on, was very superficial. I watch lots of movies that aren't specifically Christian but to seem to be Christian but not really have anything to do with true faith was disappointing.

Woman Thou Art Loosed: On the 7th Day, directed by Neema Barnette, is a powerful movie that compels audience members to rethink the view others before looking at themselves. From the onset, this film grabs your attention with the heartfelt performances of Blair Underwood, Sharon Leal, Pamela Grier, Reed McCants. Having been filmed in New Orleans, a powerful cast of locals were tapped into including Nicoya Banks, Jaqueline Fleming, Zoe Carter, and Jamie Alyson Uribe to name just a few of the outstanding performances from the talent pool. Make the time to see this film while it is on the big screen. It's worth watching more than once as I look forward to the DVD release. I just hope that Neema, Blair, and Sharon aren't overlooked when it is time for the Academy Awards to nominate.

This is a really good movie that won't be seen by as many people that would like it, because they are of the Caucasian persuasion and it's an "African-American" movie. My wife and I see a lot of movies. We judge a movie by many things, but skin color doesn't play into it. This movie is a story of a troubled marriage, a commentary on the meaning and need for faith, and a helluva good mystery/detective story. Blair Underwood plays David Ames, history professor and upper middle class mover and shaker, who has the ear of the mayor. He carries the role off on just the right note. Sharon Leal plays his wife Kari, beautiful partner, stay-at-home mom of nearly 7 year old daughter Mikayla , and perfect hostess/ homemaker. There seem to be some secrets however, and then Mikayla is kidnapped. Who took her? Why? Does it have to do with the secret past of Kari, that threatens to tear apart their marriage and cost them their daughter? Leal plays Kari as she starts to disintegrate, with notes of despair, anger, fear that are very convincing. Pam Grier plays Detective Barrick who is in charge of the investigation. She has one of the best lines in any movie I've seen recently, "That's Detective Bitch to you!" Nicoye Banks plays an FBI agent with an old connection to Kari. T.D. Jakes is there as the man of faith. Watch Nichole Behair as Beth, and Patrick Weathers in a role you won't forget. Wrap this all in shots and sets that take you into New Orleans upscale and down, and beautiful cinematography. This is a damn good movie most people won't see. I'ts only in one theater in all of the Cleveland area.

I read about this movie in L.A. Times and then on the Chicago Tribune's website, and I wanted to make sure I supported it. From the trailer, it doesn't look like the typical black film full of stereotypes and a plot that leaves much to be desired. I've been a Blair Underwood fan since I was a kid and think Sharon Leal is a great actress. The movie is about a married couple whose daughter is kidnapped but in order to find out who the criminal is who did it, they are forced to deal with their own deeply hidden secrets. I had my own opinions on who the kidnapper was and I was surprised I was right because I kept second-guessing myself, which is a good thing because a predictable plot is no fun. But the secrets the wife was hiding were definitely unexpected. I wasn't sold on Pam Grier playing the tough cop or her New Orleans accent ("that there" seemed like a stretch), but it was good to see her in a new film. I'll definitely buy the film when it releases and hope that Hollywood will let it show up in more theaters.
